Screwing around with an adapter and scissor as pictured seems a bit risky. BMW makes a spare tire kit for a lot of its RFT cars and most cars use a version of the lifting block on the E85/86. The low-profile jack is pricey, but is very compact and fits the lifting block. It needs a ratcheting wrench with it:

A manual transmission can be set to "comfort", "sport", and "track" modes simply by the technique and speed at which you shift it; it doesn't need "modes", modes are for manumatics that try to behave like a real 3-pedal manual transmission. If you can money-shift it, it's a manual transmission. "Yeah, but NO ONE puts an automatic trans shift knob on a manual transmission."
